Porting QML Applications to Qt 5 Example

The new version of Qt Quick in Qt 5 brings in some changes to the way QML applications are developed. For the complete list of changes that affect existing QML applications, refer to Porting QML Applications to Qt 5.

This topic will walk through the porting process to make the flickr Qt 4 QML demo work on Qt 5. If you have the SDK based on Qt 4.8 installed, you can find this demo application under <install_dir_root>/Examples/4.x/declarative/demos/.

Follow these step-by-step instructions to port the flickr Qt 4 QML application work to Qt 5:

Open the flickr project using Qt Creator.

Edit all the .qml files and replace the import QtQuick 1.0 statements with import QtQuick 2.3.
